I have an old one I wanted to get the new emblem over but it can't be done so I will be getting my old one refreshed .. It's about 25 years old so well overdue .. Of course I will add the year or premiers to it

Its a no for me. I think getting inked is a personal decision. I can see how some of the players would want to do that given that it symbolises something they have achieved experienced. Not sure this extends to fans

LostDoggy

Yeah. I'm pretty well covered as it is, may as well add one to commemorate the year!

My tattoos are traditional so I'm gonna continue that theme and get an 'american traditional' style bulldog head. Will post a pic when i eventually get around to it.

I've been offered a free tattoo by an extremely good artist. I won't take it up, as creative as he is and as cutting as his images are I just can't get away from being a clean skin. It's who I am.

Shout out if you want something different referred to you.

I stupidly said when I was a young bloke that I would get a tatt only when the Doggies won the flag.
My wife and two (now much older pups) reminded me five minutes after the siren, she even went as far as saying the money is in the bank when i needed it.
I will live up to my promise as I have always thought about getting one but I want to somehow include my two pups names, my old cricket club and the doggies flag.
Not sure how to go about it and might be 95 years old before it happens but will post when done.

LostDoggy
28-10-2016, 01:38 PM
KT31- A good way to do it is to look up a few tattoo artists in your area on apps like Instagram- you get a pretty solid idea of their work quality and style. Then once you've picked an artist whose style you like, you can contact them and have a consult session with them (or email) about specifically what it is you're after and work with them to get a tattoo you're happy with!

It feels a bit like sunburn, but not as painful as I thought .

I went to the soul inn house in Moonee ponds, and I highly recommend them .
Just a heads up the parking around there is atrocious, with permit zones everywhere .

The Tattoo shop said they have done more Dogs GF tattoo's this year than any other team in previous years. But hey we have been waiting a while.
